Sir Giga Chad

In the mercenary guild, the receptionist that Luka interacted with the most was giving dire news to Anna.

"Huh? Can you... please repeat that?"

The receptionist let out a deep sigh, she did not want to break Anna's heart any further, but she did as Anna asked.

"Your village... doesn't exist anymore. I'm sorry."

Anna's lips were quivering and the tips of her fingers went cold. She unconsciously grabbed Luka's hands for support, and Luka let her grab onto him. Her hands clenched Luka's hands tightly. 

"If the date and time of your abduction are accurate, then... it means that a few days after you got abducted, the bandits came back and destroyed and looted everything. There were no survivors."

"No... no way... no...!"

Her legs gave in and she collapsed on the floor. Anna's tears started pouring out like a waterfall. Her chest felt tight and her heart felt empty. She had trouble breathing as her mind tried to deny reality.
